[Pkg-games-ubuntu] [Bug 222779] Re: XGalaga: Key pad and sound do not function on latest version of Hardy Heron

[Bill]

Same here, on w500, xubuntu 11.04, xgalaga 2.1.1.0-3.

It happens with both xgalaga and xgalaga-hyperspace.

I'm aware that this is an intentional change in Ubuntu 11.04 (sigh).
However, for an app to use /dev/dsp and /dev/mixer these days is rather
anachronistic.  OSS was so 90's :-)

Any chance the upstream application could be 'repaired' to work in
today's world?

Otherwise, I'll simply have to limit my 'leisure time' to my 2001 a21p
(still running lucid).

Title:
  XGalaga: Key pad and sound do not function on latest version of Hardy
  Heron

Status in “xgalaga” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: xgalaga

  Not sure of what the issue is with XGaliga.  There are two problems I
  am having presently with the program.

  a.  The worst is that the keyboard control of the game does not
  function.  It only accepts input from the mouse.

  b.  Less than optimal, sound fails to work with XGalaga since Gusty,
  and it remains the issue with Heron.

  I don't have a crash or anything to attach.
